Hi. I'm trying to output the current date to a cronjob log file. Nothing seems to work, echo $(date), echo `date` or just date in the script. I'm using /sbin/sh
Any ideas? Thanks, John (2 Replies)

I can use 'crontabs –e' and do all the scheduling I like. However I would like to auto send myself just the cronjobs logs that fail. That is to say the PIDs that fail and the related lines with those PID’s only. (Not the full set of logs) Has anyone done this work? Or does an AIX 5.3 tool... (0 Replies)

Hi, all!
I was working on my Debian, minding my own business but then I wanted to see what happened if the same user was included on both cron.allow and cron.deny :p
I would have bet that cron.deny was going to override cron.allow for security reasons, but my computer proved me wrong:... (3 Replies)

vboxbeep
vboxbeep(1) Linux System Administration vboxbeep(1)NAME
vboxbeep - isdn voice box (beeper)
SYNOPSIS
vboxbeep [OPTION] [OPTION] [...]
DESCRIPTION
vboxbeep is a daemon, that watches several message directories. If new messages are found it will beep. Vboxbeep does not use vboxd, it can
only watch local directories.
Vboxbeep is also used to stop this annoying beep.
OPTIONS
Without any options, vboxbeep will signal an already running vboxbeep to stop its beep. Only root can start it as daemon.
-s, --sound HOURS
Hours to play beep signal. Use 24 hour format, like 0-23. Multiple hours can be given separated by commas, a "*" is used for always,
"-" for never.
-m, --messagebox DIR
Message directory to scan. You can use this option several times.
-p, --pause SECS
Time to wait between every check. Default is 5 seconds.
-k, --kill
Kill a running vboxbeep. This option can only be used by root.
-h, --help
Show summary of options.
-v, --version
Show version of program.
NOTE
vboxbeep will only work if it is installed suid root. This may be a security hole, so many distributions do not install it suid root, and
thus it's useless. If you want to enable vboxbeep, please read the distribution-specific documentation how to do that (e.g. with debian
gnu/linux read /usr/doc/isdnutils/README.debian).
